Will you marry an Entrepreneur?



I know it won’t sound populist, but generally the answer is "no". “No” is also my answer to hypothetical question :).

Why? Because you will always be an entrepreneur's second wife/husband; first is always his/her venture. They spend their best (young) years building the business and hence are unavailable for family and kids have to grow without them. Later on when age is gone and kids are grownup, and the typical entrepreneur is too rich, he may spend whole day drinking or touring the world, but by that time "time" has gone... So a glass of drink and some ulcers in stomach are one's companions near the end...

There will be many exceptions of successful entrepreneurs who did not deprive their family with time and care, but if exceptions are too less and generalization is too evident to see in front of us, we go with the generalization for our own personal wellness.
